Bühlberg Trail

An easy snowshoe hike through snowy mountain forests and across streams, away from any road or ski run. This trail with guaranteed snow leads from Bühlberg through pristine winter scenery with views of the Simmental's mighty peaks.

The snowshoe circuit starts at the Lenk, Bühlberg bus stop. Right at the outset, the route reaches its highest point at just under 1,660 m. From there, it initially descends across open meadows. The compact circuit is characterised by alternating open terrain and short sections of forest, interspersed with wet meadows and moorland.

Further along, the route loses more elevation, reaching its lowest point only in the final third. It then turns back towards Bühlberg. The return ascent accounts for the route’s total elevation gain of around 140 metres and leads from the lower-lying terrain back to the open areas near the starting point. After around two kilometres and just over an hour, the snowshoe trail finishes once again near the bus stop. The appeal of this short circuit lies above all in the close succession of meadows, forest and moorland.
